Are divorce lawyers parrially to blame for the skyrocketing divorce rate?

Thanks to lawyers, you can get a divorce over the internet now. Are we focusing too much on an easy out, and not enough on correcting simple problems like irreconcilable differences?

I don't think you can really blame the lawyers themselves. The lawyers are just filling a niche. If people didn't feel the need for a quickie divorce in our ever-increasingly frivolous must-have-it-now society, they wouldn't be practicing. You may debate whether what they do is right or wrong, but the fact is enough people want this service to make it widely available.
